+5 WOsMerit's Ad Astra Tim. ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif) Allow me to close this post with an editorial note: if you want to honor Tim and his work with Cypherpunks, do not read the Wikipedia article on Cypherpunks. Just ignore it. That is what Tim did. The Wikipedia article is a steaming piece of editorial dreck that appears to have been largely authored by brand ruboff-seeking sycophants and (at best) hanger-ons and more likely non-participants. There is hardly any word of truth to the article, in particular when it comes to the list of supposed Cypherpunks participants and their supposed contributions. Instead, do what Tim would have done: close that browser window and pour yourself another Bourbon. Those who were there, fighting at the front lines of the Cypherpunks trenches, such as Tim, know the truth. The hell with those seeking credit to whom little or no credit for those days and this massive effort that Cypherpunks was is due.

It is a very young market, the dominant position is BTC I prefer to be Full Bitcoin. Bitcoin can be investment or not, but it is better to think long term.
(But each personal situation is different and depends on the moment of entry into Bitcoin.)

First and foremost, when the time comes take some fucking profits.
This is what I must regret. If I had take 10-20% profil I would had recover almost all my investment and would be relaxed now. Possible buying more. Looking back that's what I'd most definitely do - sell all @20k and rebuy at 3k (all in) ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Unfortunately (or luckily) I'm not a trader but a HODLer.

I have decided to write about what have been my errors during the past bull run and subsequent downtrend till now.
Brilliant post. I'd say though that people should decide on a price and proportion of coins that works for them and get rid no matter what the market looks like it might do once those targets are hit. If you can't bring yourself to do that then you either have the wrong price or proportion. At the $10-15,000 level loads of people will be back in the black and it may sit there and not do much. That's a humongously more relaxing time to do to. Yes, setting milestones is very important and everyone should do it in some percentage but, even if someone hasn't reached those milestones or extracted enough... when the obvious signs of being in the final phase of the bubble come it is the time to FUCKING HURRY UP ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Also, when taking profits, it is extremely important to really "take them" I mean, if you just leave them on the side, you will be very tempted to use them at the very next dip. So, either extract them for good or, at least, set another milestone in which you will use them to rebuy (ie, at half the price you sold, etc) and stick to the plan. It is of course possible, to decide some percentage to be taken "for good" and some higher one for trading/rebuying in the bear market. That's a nice price target to get some percentage of profits during the next bull run, yeah. I suspect (as d_eddie already suggested) the next bull run will have different price dynamics and much more people will be taking profits on the way up than this time so the uptrend will be smoother and more prolonged in time.... until the final stage that most probably will be as explosive and short as every single time in the past. Thanks for the comments and positive feedback! When I finish my posts writing about my mistakes I will try to combine it all in one single text and include some of this suggestions. Might come handy during the next bull run.

Might come handy during the next bull run. Took my profits, to get me thru the next 1.5 years of retirement (w/o taking soc sec and traditional investments early). So in full HODL mode. Sold some equipment to be paid per the agreement after Jan 1st 2019 (a friend no risk) at 10k. Thus one of 2 things 1) I get a lot more BTC then or 2) I get a lot less BTC then. the next year is just plain gonna suck. We may just match gold as a virtual gold at 1.5k ..gold ..pretty much was in that rut for last 5 years.. it is all about adoption...and right now with the excess of BTC due to price bubble and mining difficulty way out of wack with that..this again will take 1 year IMHO> my hope is that at LEAST' it will bounce between 3k and 3.5k sideways or above at worse..but probably not. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif)

When you walk through a storm Hold your head up high And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm There's a golden sky And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind Walk on through the rain Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on With hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Walk on, walk on With hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone

Excellent post, please give him some merit I have been out of merits for months. This post is going to be a very helpful guide during a bull run.
I'd like to add that with all the nocoiners asking you for advice and talking about it more and more. During the last bull run I had the feeling bitcoin adoption suddenly had skyrocketed. Meaning that my view of adoption was completely delusional because of the sudden increase of price. Which resulted in me barely selling any coin and not having extra fiat to buy back during the bear market. The price attracts a lot of people but that's not adoption, adoption is the people who are leftover after the attraction of the price. This is how I see it.
Thanks! Yes, I thought the same. Probably everyone did.... but all that people that clogged the exchanges during the last stages of the bubble were just ignorant FOMOers. We should have known better. And the same happened in 2013, exchanges had a very long verification queue. Bitcoin was in the news, maybe not as omnipresent as in Q4 2017 but still a big change from almost 0 presence to some important presence. China FOMOed strongly into the hype.... until they didn't. It imploded and most of the FOMOers were gone for good. The bolded part sums it perfectly!
